Re: [Aspell-user] installing aspell

[Steven Stapleton]

progess.
installing aspell 6.0 on a Mac OS X
we used the path command from afp548.com
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

So the dict installed now. The aspell is now running in 
en_us, german and french.  Connection to CommuniGatePro 
was simple after that.

Thanks all for the help. So wanted to pass it along to the 
group, in case someone else runs it on a MAC OS X.3.7
